Had an amazing dinner. Food was great, staff couldn’t have been nicer, and they capped everything off with a rose at the end. Such a cozy, affordable restaurant with the best Persian food in the city.

The food at Pars Cove was absolutely delicious! From the rich, creamy baba ganoush to the perfectly buttered saffron rice, tender kabob, and flavorful joojeh kabob—every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor.

Aside from the buttered saffron rice, the romantic ambiance—reminiscent of Persian poetry—and the perfect selection of nostalgic Iranian music made the experience even more special.

If you’re in the Lincoln Park or Lakeview area and love Mediterranean or Middle Eastern food, don’t miss out on this unforgettable spot!

The food is always good here, especially the rack of lamb and the hummus. It is also a romantic place for a date.

If you’re looking for a restaurant that feels like a hidden gem but delivers an unforgettable dining experience, you have to try Pars Cove. My husband and I have made it our anniversary tradition, and for good reason—the food is incredible, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service is some of the best we’ve ever had.

The staff is so kind and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. Our server was incredibly sweet and attentive, adding to the experience without ever feeling overbearing.

We did the four-course meal, and every dish was perfect. The flavors were rich, comforting, and beautifully balanced. If you’ve never had Persian food before, this is the place to try it. Everything is made with such care, and you can taste the difference.

It’s rare to find a restaurant that feels this special. Whether you're celebrating something big or just want a truly amazing meal, Pars Cove is a place you’ll want to come back to again and again. We already can’t wait for next time

We ordered the Persian Tray for two and the Salmon Kabob for a party of 3. Food was delicious. The lamb, chicken and salmon were done well as they were tender and flavourful. My husband asked for warm water and the owner suggested adding some honey to his warm water. He was so kind and thoughtful. Before we left, he gave my husband a rose to give it to me. What a nice way to end our dinner! We had a wonderful dining experience.
